New York, July 13, 2011 -- Moody's Investors Service has placed the Aaa bond rating of the government of the United States on review for possible downgrade given the rising possibility that the statutory debt limit will not be raised on a timely basis, leading to a default on US Treasury debt obligations. On June 2, Moody's had announced that a rating review would be likely in mid July unless there was meaningful progress in negotiations to raise the debt limit.
In conjunction with this action, Moody's has placed on review for possible downgrade the Aaa ratings of financial institutions directly linked to the US government: Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, the Federal Home Loan Banks, and the Federal Farm Credit Banks. We have also placed on review for possible downgrade securities either guaranteed by, backed by collateral securities issued by, or otherwise directly linked to the US government or the affected financial institutions.
filed under: summit, economy, finance, Greece (BRUSSELS) - The eurozone is considering holding an emergency meeting of the bloc's 17 leaders on Friday to discuss the spiralling debt crisis, diplomats told AFP on Tuesday.
"A meeting of eurozone leaders is under consideration," one diplomat said, adding that no final decision has been taken. EU president Herman Van Rompuy is "mulling an extraordinary summit on the debt crisis," another diplomat said.
The summit plans highlight mounting concerns in Europe that the debt crisis will force Greece to declare default and contaminate Italy and Spain, the eurozone's third and fourth largest economies.
July 13 (Bloomberg) -- Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke says the U.S. needs to increase the debt limit and "take a serious attack on the unsustainability of our fiscal position."
